Primary Metals & Heavy Industries

Steel mills, con cast plants and iron and steel foundries are some of the sector we supply fluids to.
 

The Primary Metals and Heavy Industry sector is critical to society as it is the feeder of the materials to be processed into items we use in daily life, from electronics, to cables, vehicles, castings through to bridges and building steelwork. The sector converts ores and minerals into steels and alloys as well as taking metal scrap for processing into new material for a new life in our world. This large scale, high energy use sector has large demands on fluids and chemistry to function efficiently and continuously, as down time is costly and to be avoided.
Operating big furnaces, tilting ladles of molten metal and continuously casting steel bar then rolling to shape, have big technical demands on the lubricants and chemical suppliers to match the scale of their operations with on-time deliveries.
